I rarely use taxi's as I drive myself however following an accident at home and suffering a nasty…read moreankle/foot injury it was obvious I needed to go to Eastbourne DGH. Having booked the taxi it arrived within 3 minutes. The cab driver JAY (28) was so kind and helpful to the point he almost carried me into the emergency department. Without his assistance I'm really not sure I could have walked the short distance into the hospital, Jay certainly went above and beyond his duties as a cab driver. A HUGE thank you to both taxi drivers your extra help was very much appreciated. I'm now back home, my lower leg in a cast for the next 6/8 weeks but relieved I made the journey there and back home safely .. Many thanks.

This taxi company is one of two main ones in the town, the other being sussex cars. I always use…read moresussex cars unless there is for some reason an exceptionally long wait for a car as i find them quite a bit cheaper than this company. For some reason any time i have ever had to use Eastbourne and Country Taxis i've had to pay well over the odds (it seems to me), sometimes as much as £1 or £2 more than for the same journey with sussex cars. For that reason i have only given them 3 stars. However a plus point is the very quick service - i have never really had to wait longer than 15 minutes for one of Eastbourne and Countrys taxis and even that is longer than usual. So can't fault them on speed and timekeeping. Drivers are always polite though often not as friendly as other cab companies drivers.

This is my preferred taxi company as they are usually prompt, reliable and not too expensive. Most…read moreof the drivers are friendly and helpful, though as with all companies there are always a few grumps! Never had any major problems with them and the reception staff are very helpful and friendly - quite good at remembering names too, or maybe i just use them too much! They operate 24/7 but at peak times you can be in for a wait as it is a popular cab firm, but they are always honest about the waiting time and often they won't take as long as their estimate.

I don't even give them one star but I have no choice. I used to use this company only until a few…read moreweeks ago my friend and I got a taxi. We were accused of not paying (we stopped of to pick a friend up on the way to our destination) were both told "I know your fucking type" when asked what he meant, he said it was because of "your kind sit there" - tourist information centre. My friend come back to the car as she had knocked the door to get our friend, I told her what had been said, she took a picture of him so we could go to the company. With this he reached over knocking her phone flying. Then got out grabbing me from the car then started punching my friend, knocking her to the floor where he continued to kick and punch her even using his money tray - and she is 8 month pregnant!!! Police investigation continues. BŮŤ he still has his job!!! AVOID THIS COMPANY

Eastbourne's railway station is one of the busiest on the south coast, handling over 3.2 million…read morepassengers a year. The present station is the third on the site, and was designed by F D Bannister and completed in 1886. The first station opened in 1849, followed by the second in 1866, but was expanded to handle the increasing traffic as Eastbourne developed as a resort. It is a grade II listed building. It is a handsome and well-preserved Italianate building in red and yellow brick, with a central clock tower, although the façade is not symmetrical: on the left is a large French pavilion-style roof with fish-scale tiles and iron cresting, and on the right a rectangular hall. Unfortunately, the street view is marred by an appalling clutter of traffic lights and pedestrian barriers. The concourse is triangular and has an attractive glazed roof, with the ticket office, cafes, newsagents and toilets opening from it. The station was built with four platforms, although it now has only three. These are adequate to handle the standard off-peak service of half hourly trains to Brighton and London Victoria and three trains an hour to Hastings, one of which continues to Ashford via Rye.

I was on my way back from visiting my sister in Seaford as I stepped off my train onto the platform…read moreI nearly fell through the gap from the train and the platform also nearly loosing my back brace. The rest of my journey from the train to the gate was great until I put my ticket in and it dragged me with it and it squeezed me through the little ticket eater. It felt like I had just been in a washing machine and I was shookith to the core as my grandchildren say. After I came out the top of the gate where my ticket came out I grabbed it and walked home it was a 2 hour walk because the gate ate my wallet as well. Im definitely coming back here because I have no choice.
